1) Operation of the Tape Counter
(1) Press the RESET button to reset the counter to "0000".
(2) By using the PLAY, FF, or REW functions, the reading of the
counter will change to indicate index position.
e@ During recording and playback operations, the counter is useful for
noting the location of existing programs or positions where
recording is to be started.
e The reading of this counter does not correspond with that of any
other deck.
(3) Deck A and Deck B have the memory of their own counter.
Operate COUNTER A/B to change Deck A or B to display its
counter.
DOLBY B AND C NOISE REDUCTION SYSTEM
M The Dolby noise reduction system substantially reduces the tape
background noise (hiss) inherent in the cassette medium. Dolby B NR is
most widely in use. However Dolby C NR is a much more recent
development and represents significant improvements over Dolby B
NR.
MM Tape background noise consists primarily of high frequency informa-
tion, which is particularly annoying during soft passages. The Dolby NR
system increases the levet of low volume mid- and high-frequency
signais during recording and reduces the level of these signals by an
identical amount during playback. As a result, the playback signal is
identical to the original source, but the level of background noise
generated by the tape is greatly reduced.
DOLBY HX-PRO HEADROOM EXTENSION SYSTEM
This deck is equipped with the Dolby HX-PRO headroom extension system.
Since the system functions automatically during recording, no switching
operation or adjustment is required. The system is effective with any type
of Normal, CrO, and Metal tape.
The Dolby HX-PRO headroom extension system functions during recording
to raise the saturation level in the treble range. Therefore, most of the
treble range components distorted or lost during recording on convention-
al cassette decks are more faithfully recorded on the new DRW-660 cassette
deck.
2) MEMORY STOP Operation
(1) During recording or playback, the Memory Stop feature can be
used to locate a particular point on the tape. Press the COUNTER
MEMO button at the desired point.
(2) The MEMO indicator lights.
(3) When the Rewind ( 44 ) button is pressed during forward tape
travel (D>), or the Fast Forward ( >> ) button is pressed during
reverse tape travel (<]), the tape is rapidly rewound (or advanced)
until the counter indication of "C00°" is reached.
e The Memory Stop feature will rewind or forward the tape to within
-5 counts in the forward (>) direction (from "0000" to "—000s") and
to within +5 counts in the reverse (<1) direction (from "0000" to.
"0005"). After this, several seconds are required for corrective
operations.
e The Memory Stop function operates independently in both direc-
tions for deck A and deck B. The MEMO indicator will switch over
with the use of the COUNTER A/B button.
Caution:
If the memory stop operation is performed after repeated fast-forwarding
or rewinding, the tape may not stop at the proper position.
@ The operating principle of Dolby C NR is similar to that of Dolby B NR
except for the encoding/decoding response curves. The noise reduc-
tion effect obtained with Dolby C NR is up to 20 dB, compared to 10 dB
with Dolby B NR. In addition, Dolby C NR uses an ants-saturation
network and spectral skewing circuitry for a significant improvement in
the dynamic range of the mid- to high-frequencies.
Features of the Dolby HX-PRO Headroom Extension System
(1) Performance of Normal and CrO, tapes can be improved to very close
of that offered by Meta! tape.
(2) The dynamics in the treble range are improved signific antly.
(3) Since no decoding is necessary during playback, the impro ved sound
can be enjoyed on any type of tape deck, including portale players
and car audio systems.
(4) The system functions whether the Dolby 8/C NR systemis engaged
or not.
